Installation of New Patrol Leaders’ Council

This week, we had our first in-person meeting in nearly four months and were finally able to officially install our new Senior Patrol Leader, Adam F., and rest of the Patrol Leaders’ Council (PLC). The PLC is responsible for planning and conducting the troop’s activities.  Thank you to all the young men who have volunteered to help lead our troop!

 
Camp Cards

Reminder that all troop families are asked to purchase 15 camp cards to sell or use.  Please bring your check in the amount of $75, made payable to St. Albert the Great, to the next meeting.  Monday, July 20th will the final day to turn in your payment.

New Troop Website

We are excited to unveil the new troop website: www.troop327.com! On the site, you will find the latest troop news and updates, a list of upcoming dates & events, links to several useful forms & documents, and a link to sign up for a Scoutmaster Conference (see more on that below).  Special thanks to Mike Hasty for helping us acquire our own web address and getting the site set up!

All official troop communication will continue to be emailed via Scoutbook. You may also find the official troop calendar on Scoutbook.  We will continue to use the Facebook group as on online bulletin board and scrapbook to post reminders and share pictures from our camp outs and other special events.  It is our hope that the boys will use the site to stay current on the latest troop news, since very few of them receive the Scoutbook emails or access Facebook.

Schedule a Scoutmaster Conference

If you would like to schedule a Scoutmaster Conference at an upcoming troop meeting, please sign up via the SignUpGenius link below.  Scouts may also make an in-person request for a Scoutmaster Conferenece at a meeting or camp out without scheduling one ahead of time; however, preference will be given to those who have signed up in advance.
